The Invasion of Sicily Historical Missions For Realistic Players (PS3)

[RuffMonk]

@ Plavikit
It was a big surprise to me too, but in all of my research I did to generate all of the missions, the "Jug" was nowhere to be found in the skies over Sicily! I even read through an extensive report detailing interdiction efforts of the Allied Air Force that was made for the USAAF and in the section listing planes that took part in the operations, again no Jug. From the four books I scoured through and the various online sources I found, it appears that the main fighter aircraft that operated over Sicily were Spitfires, P-40s and P-38s which is why I was baffled as to why the P-40 and P-38 weren't included in BoP. Heck, I couldn't even find evidence of P-51Bs operating over Sicily, but there were A-36s which in all respect are a mustang variant which is why I went ahead and included the P-51B in some of the missions.

Correction: I just remembered that Mustangs were referenced in the Interdiction report, but were listed as reconnaissance only. I still however, couldn't confirm any actual engagements they took part in though!
